About this package
This package builds the first working version of your app for Android and iOS from one Flutter or React Native codebase, scoped to the few features that show whether people will actually use it. It suits founders who need something real on testers' phones before raising money, hiring a team or paying for a full product.
Cutting the scope to what proves the idea
Before any code, I write a screen list with you and mark each feature as now or later. A first version usually needs sign-up, the one core action, such as booking a session, posting a job or logging a workout, and a way for you to see what users did. Chat and referral schemes usually wait. The written list is what the plan covers, so the scope does not grow quietly.
What sits behind the screens on each plan
- Starter keeps data and login in Firebase, which is free at small volumes. Builds reach testers through TestFlight and a Google Play testing track.
- Business adds a Laravel or NestJS API with versioned routes, a browser admin panel for users and content, push notifications, Sign in with Apple and Google, crash reporting and the store submission.
- Premium adds payments, offline use of the key screens with sync when the signal returns, a second user role such as staff, deep links, and a clickable prototype you approve before the build starts.
What stays yours and what you pay others
The code lives in a Git repository in your name from the first commit, and you open the Apple and Google developer accounts and invite me. Apple's yearly membership, Google's registration fee, Firebase or server hosting above the free tiers, and services such as SMS or maps are billed to you by those providers. Payments follow store rules: digital features sold inside the app go through in-app purchase, while services delivered in the real world can use Stripe. If the idea depends on heavy Bluetooth, augmented reality or a watch app, I say so during scoping, because those parts are written natively and priced separately. SaaS development covers the web side of a product.

I have built websites, WHMCS modules and web apps for clients since before AI coding tools existed. Today I build with AI-assisted tools and review every change myself, which is why fixed prices here are lower than an agency's for the same scope. I work while the US, Canada and Australia sleep, so each morning there is progress on your staging link.

Questions about this package
Will the MVP be thrown away when the app grows?
It should not be. The codebase is a normal Flutter or React Native project, so later versions add screens to it rather than starting over. The Starter plan's Firebase data can move to a Laravel or NestJS API later, which is a defined piece of work rather than a rebuild. What does get rewritten is any feature the testers showed nobody wanted.
Why does Starter use Firebase instead of a custom API?
Because a first version has to reach testers quickly and cheaply. Firebase gives login, a database and file storage without a server to run, and its free tier covers early testing. Once you know which features matter and need rules of your own, such as approvals, refunds or staff roles, the Business plan's own API becomes the better home for the data.
Can I show the app to investors before it is in the stores?
Yes. TestFlight lets you invite people to the iPhone build by email, and a Google Play testing track does the same for Android, so an investor installs the real app on their own phone. Both are part of every plan. A store listing is not needed for a demo, only for public release.
How ordering a package works
-
1
Choose a plan
Pick Starter, Business or Premium and pay once by card, PayPal or crypto. The price on the page is the price.
-

Send your content
A project opens for your order. Send your text, logo, photos and any logins I need there.
-

I build on a private staging link you can open on your phone, with updates as I go.
-
4
Launch and handover
After your approval the site goes live on your domain, and every login is yours.
One-time price, no monthly fee from me
You pay for the build once. Your domain and hosting are registered in your name and renewed with your hosting provider, who bills you directly. I add nothing on top, and the site keeps running whether or not you hire me again.
What I do not build
Gambling and adult websites, and sites that sell content without the rights to it. Need something not listed? Ask for a custom quote.
